So to the information contained within the Middleboro be sure and check there for any entries that may pertain Gazette during the period January 1921 through to your search. December 1929. The information is as it appears in the newspaper. No attempt has been made to verify that It is my hope that the Middleboro Gazette Index, 1925 the information given in the newspaper is accurate or - 1929 will provide a lasting resource for people to reconcile alternate spellings of family names. researching the history of Middleboro and Lakeville, Massachusetts. The focus of the index is on the communities of Middleboro and Lakeville, Massachusetts.

So the roll begins with 1/11/29. The masthead of the 1/25/29 issue The often informal nature of reporting presents special indicates that this issue should run 10 pages. challenges to researchers. Additional information But from this point to the next masthead about specific businesses, town departments or other (2/1/29) there are 14 pages.

For example, although there are both Pierce and Peirce Mary Pelletier-Hunyadi, Indexer families in Middleboro, inversion of the “i” and “e” is a common mistake. Sometimes the letter “n” is flipped and becomes a “u.” Because of the word-by-word alphabetization used in this index, names with prefixes, like De Moranville, do not fall in the same place in the index as when the name is spelled without a space, DeMoranville. There are countless examples of how easily names get lost in an index because of spelling errors, so it is advantageous for the researcher to take a broad view when conducting research on individuals and families. Due to the fact that the issues of the Gazette have been handled repeatedly prior to microfilming, there are occasionally cases where letters are missing from names. This does not present a particularly difficult situation unless the letters missing happen to be those 1 Middleboro Gazette Index 1925 - 1929 __dal (sic), Clarence Accidents cont.

It sheds light on the role of twelve female models, muses, wives, poets, and artists active within the Pre- Raphaelite circle, which is revealed as much less of an exclusive “boys’ club.” The aim of the exhibition was to “redress the balance in showing just how engaged and central women were to the endeavor, as the subjects of the images themselves, but also in their production,” as stated on the back cover of the catalogue accompanying the exhibition. Although there have been previous exhibitions on the female artists associated with the movement, such as in Pre-Raphaelite Women Artists (Manchester City Art Galleries, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, Southampton City Art Gallery, 1997–98), the broader scope of this exhibition counts models and relatives among the significant players within art production and distribution.

    GENDER STUDIES 19(1)/2020 10.2478/genst-2021-0001 SISTERS OF INSPIRATION. FROM SHAKESPEAREAN HEROINE TO PRE-RAPHAELITE MUSE DANA PERCEC West University of Timișoara [email protected] Abstract: The paper aims to make a connection between the female models of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the portrayal of Shakespearean heroines, given that the 19th-century school of painting was using the Bard not only as a source of legitimation and authority, but also as a source of displacement, tackling apparently universal and literary subjects that were in fact disturbing for the Victorian sensibilities, such as love and eroticism, neurosis and madness, or suicide. As more recent scholarship has revealed, the women behind the Brotherhood, while posing as passive and contemplative, objects on display for the public gaze, had more agency and mobility than the average Victorian women. Keywords: Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood, female models, Victorian sensibilities, Shakespearean heroines, sisterhood. 1. Introduction The Pre-Raphaelite movement has received a lot of critical attention both in artistic terms and in terms of the literary sources of inspiration this school of painting used. The founders, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and William Holman Hunt were members of the same generation of young imaginative artists, but even half a century after the first PRB exhibition in 1848, a late Pre-Raphaelite like John William Waterhouse had the same technical and aesthetic approach. Escapist and nostalgic, the Pre-Raphaelite painting favours medieval settings, Biblical or mythological themes, lavish costumes and vivid colours. Above all, it brings to the forefront the female subject: beautiful young women in a melancholy pose, enigmatic and inactive, statuesque and aloof.

Conclusion 84 Acknowledgements 88 References 89 Appendix I 94 Appendix II 95 2 3 FEB 2000 ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned with the concept of 'civil religion' and whether it is applicable to some aspects of New zealand society. The origin, development and criticism of the concept is discussed, drawing on such scholars as Robert Bellah and John F. Wilson in the United States, and on recent New Zealand commentators. Using material such as Anzac Day and Waitangi Day commemorations, Governor-Generals' speeches, observance of Dominion Day and Empire Day, prayers in Parliament, the role of Norman Kirk, and other related phenomena, the thesis considers whether this 'evidence' substantiates the existence of a civil religion.
